Pea salad is usually made with raw peas. Pea salad is slower to spoil than its cousin, the chicken salad. It makes a good summer picnic vegetable. However, due to the eggs and mayonnaise, avoid leaving in the sun, or outside of refrigeration for lengthy periods of time. This can be a quick way to use up mayonnaise and boiled eggs during a power outage. Some people like to add bread or cracker crumbs for texture. Be sure they are gluten free. In a mixed gluten/gluten free household, be aware of gluten crumbles in food jars, such as mayonnaise.
